Chapter 1267: The Terrifying Killing Weapon

“Hm, alright, I understand.”

Aike turned around, stroking his long beard as he looked at the demon resembling Ling Meng.

This was another experiment, currently unstable, but it had temporarily stabilized after integrating with Ling Meng’s soul.

Initially, she was like a beast, possessing only savage power without any reasoning. Such an experiment wouldn’t satisfy them.

They wanted one with the strength of a ferocious beast, the heart of a demon, profound wisdom, and the loyalty of a dog.

This experiment only had strength and loyalty, a puppet, of course, easily manipulated and forced into loyalty.

However, after merging with Ling Meng’s other personality soul, she began to meet their needs.

Of course, there were still flaws—she wasn’t perfect yet—but it was only a matter of time.

“What’s her lethality like? Have you seen it?”

Aike continued to inquire, while Mage Han Lu bowed slightly and replied:

“Report to the Alliance Leader, I have not witnessed it myself. I believe such an important moment should be overseen by you personally.”

Han Lu also knew how to flatter; this was crucial, and only the leader could handle it—the rest didn’t dare to overstep.

“Hm, then let’s give it a try.”

Alliance Leader Aike took the new experiment to their testing ground, which had ample space for their experiments, allowing this experiment to showcase her strength to the fullest.

“Come, test her strength.”

Aike instructed Han Lu, who then summoned several vicious demon beasts with his magic, sending them towards the experiment, only for her to instantaneously annihilate them.

“Hm, very good, do it again.”

Aike clapped, and then they used mutated demons—far more savage than the summoned beasts—and once again, the experiment obliterated them, unleashing powerful energy.

“Hm, quite nice, much more stable than before. We can choose a defiant demon country to test her, to see if she can annihilate it all by herself.”

Aike chuckled, stroking his beard. He initially thought it was too early to bring her out, but now he felt it was just right. On the battlefield, she would be unstoppable.

The experiment was drenched in blood, expressionless, staring straight ahead.

She was like a ruthless killing weapon, but not completely.

……

……

“Is she ready?”

“Yes, she’s ready.”

Facing the questions from Qin Shili and Mu Yiting, Lin Nuo nodded.

“What about the original personality? Is it sealed again?”

“Maybe, maybe not.”

Lin Nuo didn’t have an exact answer yet; who knew where it had gone?

Did it return to Ling Meng’s body?

Not necessarily.

Lin Nuo vaguely sensed that the strange demon resembling Ling Meng that had appeared earlier was definitely related to her.

Although what was that thing even doing?

“As long as she can come back, that’s the best. Better than the new personality, at least she means no harm to us. But you mentioned that strange demon; it’s possible we’ll see it again. In any case, it’s not a good sign.”

Qin Shili said while the three discussed and let Ling Meng rest in the room, but she couldn’t stay put and soon came out.

“Master, what are you all talking about? Can’t I listen?”

Ling Meng complained, feeling somewhat excluded.

“Just some casual talk, nothing important, you don’t need to be sensitive.”

Lin Nuo placed a hand on Ling Meng’s head, trying to comfort her.

“We’re all on the same side; let’s not doubt each other. If you’re not acting odd, then we’ll prepare to leave Feng Ling Country.”

“Leave here? Aren’t we supposed to ally with them?”

“Can’t ally with a bunch of aimless loafers! They’re only out for their own little piece of land. We’ll find another place, and when the time comes, we’ll draw Feng Ling Country into a conflict with the Handa Alliance—they’ll at least die with purpose.”

Lin Nuo had already scouted another demon country, and their next step was to incite and unite them for a major assault on the Handa Alliance.

However, before they could leave, the demon army from Feng Ling Country surrounded Lin Nuo and the others, suggesting something had gone awry.

“What’s the matter with you?”

Lin Nuo sensed something was off and braced for a fight.

“Lord, it’s her! She has killed many of our comrades!”

A demon soldier pointed dramatically at Ling Meng, indignation written all over his face as if they had a blood feud.

“What’s your issue? Why are you pointing at her?”

Lin Nuo drew his sword, glaring fiercely at the accusing demon, pressing him back several paces with his strong aura.

“She killed our comrades! Now Feng Ling Country is on the brink! We have no enmity with you; why would she attack us?”

The demon soldiers were getting angrier; even if they knew they stood no chance against Lin Nuo, they had to curse these humans for destroying their homeland!

“You better explain how she killed your comrades. She’s been right here, does she even have the ability to clone herself? If you’re just talking nonsense, get ready to receive a few cuts. Here, I’ll give you a chance to speak.”

Lin Nuo decided to hear what ridiculous claims they would make. Strength was paramount; with their level of combat power, what could they pin on them? Should he just chop their heads off and kick them around?

“Right on the front lines! Many of our brothers saw her killing us and destroying our territory! Now half of Feng Ling Country is in ruins!”

“She didn’t go to kill you. If you want to try capturing her for a trial, be my guest.”

Lin Nuo summoned several swirling winds at his side, as if sharp blades were endlessly spinning in the air; if they approached, they’d be annihilated.

“Not just us; nearby demon countries have all been slaughtered by her, everyone has seen it. We’re grateful to you, but if you try to kill us now, we know it’ll be tough to escape, and we’ll have to fight.”

The general leading the troops raised his great sword, preparing for death.

Lin Nuo glanced at Ling Meng, suddenly having an epiphany.

That strange demon.

Right, she resembled Ling Meng quite a bit.

So, was it her doing?

Very likely!

Lin Nuo stopped the swirling winds and said calmly:

“I’m here to kill you? You all wouldn’t have made it this far if I truly wanted that, and there’s no need for me to play any tricks. It’s likely that someone from the Handa Alliance disguised as me attacked you to sabotage our alliance. I’m heading to the frontlines to investigate, but if you’re hell-bent on stopping me, well, death is exactly what you deserve.”

“This…”

The demon soldiers and generals exchanged glances. They knew they couldn’t defeat Lin Nuo in a fight, so they reluctantly decided to trust him, parting ways.

“Alright, let’s go.”

Lin Nuo turned back to Ling Meng and the others, signaling them to leave.

“Master, during my unconsciousness, did many things happen? I feel like someone dear has left me, bringing about this inexplicable sadness. But I can’t say who it is; Master, do you know…”

Ling Meng whispered, her heart filled with unrest.
